Off Broadway Dance Studio - New Orleans, Louisiana

I had high hopes, but the classes are large and the studio did not live up to expectations. Additionally, I have been disappointed with how they have handed the situation regarding the pandemic. They understandably pushed back the recital date, but then mandated that students participate in extra zoom classes in order to participate in the recital. My 5-year old has been over zoom for a while so they essentially discriminated against any young student who has no interest or the attention span for zoom classes, yet refused to refund recital fees for students they existed to allow to participate in the recital. We will be returning to a studio that has smaller classes and is more fun rather than strict - especially with young children.

An amazing place full of great instruction. They are professional and true lovers of dance. They teach fundamentals of dance. They genuinely care about each dancer and seeing them to their full potential. Great quality recitals and costumes that are age appropriate. Dance is serious when you walk through those doors. They provide great opportunities to their dancers. A home away from home for my dancer.

OBDS is an amazing group of young talented dancers and instructors. I Love the energy, the drive and the dedication they put into their routines and performances. Keep up the great work!!!!

This was several years ago but my daughter went here when she was 5. She was supposed to take pictures prior to their recital. There was a torrential downpour that day and my street was completely flooded. I called and asked if we could come later or reschedule. The owners daughter told me that if I didn’t care enough about my child to get her there then she would have to look into a make up class! I have never been so insulted. I allowed my daughter to finish up the year and do her little recital but I will never give them a dime or another second of our time.

Great place for kids dance classes in uptown nola. Hassle-free classes that teach the basics and beyond. You can get anything from pointe classes to hip hop. The instructors are caring and professional. The owners run the place like a fine machine and are happy to help with anything customers need.

I love this studio. I go there and the teachers are really nice there are strict and serious but that’s because they want you to get better. I have learned so much and have been so inspired by all there hard work. Love OBDS. They are so nice and you learn a lot.
